Aussie granny tackles purse snatcher.

According to Australia's Seven News, the incident took place outside the Pimpama Tavern on Australia's Gold Coast on Jan. 19.

Surveillance footage captured the moment the woman kicks off her shoes, chases down the would-be thief, and tackles him to the ground after he grabs her purse from the table and takes off.

As the tussle spills from the sidewalk onto the road, the woman can be seen placing the man — later identified as being from Upper Coomera — in what appears to be a headlock before snatching back her purse.

Her gun was probably in her purse.
